Eh I'm not willing to pay Mack that cash. He's a definite upgrade over Zuttah but Zuttah was solid. Not great but not terrible. It's not a huge need.

I still am not comfortable just riding with glennon. He hasn't proved he could make enough plays to win ball games.

I'll post my updated mock draft and off season before free agency starts.

Zuttah is TERRIBLE! Not a huge need?? He is the weakest link on our o-line....it made me sick at times how we were unable to get a run game going all game because the A gap would get blown tf up.

I been screaming for a new Center for 3 seasons now.

He is an average guard but a bad Center

Move Zuttah as a Backup as a Guard but Sign/Draft a Center

Yes fully agreed

Mack is my biggest Target but Travis is a my #1 in the Draft as a Center

If we go value at CB, DL and KR with Tillman, Allen/Peppers, and Hester then why not grab a top 3 center in the game. I mean I cant be the only one that thinks it would be stupid for our FO to pass on the possibility of adding Mack because he isnt an older and cheap value guy? Now I dont think we will ever sign a Vincent Jackson AND Carl Nicks in one offseason again...two players in their prime and getting paid top dollar at their position, but one player sure. Also, I think most skill position players will be drafted and I doubt 27-28 year olds will be brought in in FA to fill skill positions. Just a hunch. Sure Im not calling C a skill position but it is an important position none the less. Like someone pointed out...my gosh how many times does Zuttah have to allow the A gap to be blown up on a run play before we replace him?

Deuces, I like how you played GM on the last thread. But your logic is pretty sound imo and I really hope we do something like that. By cutting Joseph, drafting a RG and restructuring Penn we save what...$6-$8 million? That is exactly what Mack would get and our line is younger and better. Then with maybe restructuring Revis we could add to the $19-$22 million we already have in cap space. Grabbing the 3 value FAs everyone has been talking about and extending McCoy this year and David next would be no problem at all, especially with the cap likely going up in 2015._________________

GM Jason Licht says the Bucs are considering giving RT Demar Dotson reps at left tackle in an effort to increase his "versatility."
Licht believes Dotson was the team's best offensive lineman last season. Licht's comments are an obvious indication that he's not overly enamored with current blindside protector Donald Penn.

Here we go boys, dump Joseph and Penn and save $14,000,000

If we have a LT in Dotson on the team already that would be huge. This is a great OL draft and getting a guard or RT would not be too hard to do.

Also, hasn't Dotson only been playing football for a handful of years? Dude is still growing and getting better. The guy is really athletic and could possibly be more than a brute RT._________________

wooww... this is a bigger problem than I thought... doesn't look like he's gonna last much longer.. we'll see how the rest of the offseason goes but I wouldn't mind just letting him go and moving on.. he obviously just wanted to cash in on that contract and check out on the field
